Review:

hedwidgeon says:This was beautiful! Luna is such a difficult character to write but this sounded so natural, like you really got into her mindset not only from the perspective that she really simply believes the things she says that everyone else finds crazy, but also the unique outlook she has on friendship. What surprised me (in a really good way) was the sort of twist at the end there, where suddenly she's facing family as well as friendship, and it's so incredibly touching and sad that those can't quite reconcile. That's really something that defines Luna, her family and their beliefs and the fact that her mother is dead, but through the books (especially with DH) you see the way friendship defines her, too, and I think you brought that across beautifully in this fic. Amazing job, I will be back to reread this (:

Author's Response: I've always found Luna difficult to write, so this one-shot was a wee bit of a challenge. Luna, it seems to me, gets a bit short-changed in fanfiction - a lot of people write her as a childish ditz with her head screwed on the wrong way, but I actually think Luna's quite mature and grounded as a character. In a way, she's the sanest - she has the ability to see people for what they really are and often gives the best advice (things we lose have a funny way of coming back to us...) etc. I agree, friendship is what defines her. I suppose I just wanted to write about that - how I see Luna (she's my favourite character, haha!). I'm really, really glad you enjoyed it and thank you so much for such a lovely review (and I see you've left another one!) ♥
